Save heroku dyno quota #13

Open MOHOAzure opened 3 years ago

MOHOAzure commented 3 years ago

For now, a free worker dyno is used by this app, and it cannot provide service through out a month once the free quota is consumed.

[Ref] https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/free-dyno-hours#dyno-sleeping A heroku worker would sleep if the dyno receives no web traffic in a 30-minute period. Apps that only utilise a free worker dyno do not sleep, because they do not respond to web requests. Free web dynos do not consume free dyno hours while sleeping.

Possible solution: heroku clock https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/clock-processes-python

The heroku clock is activated at 2020-12-02 15:32:25 UTC+0. Let's check dyno usage later! image
